In more recent years, increasingly we have found (usually quite by accident) images on the internet of the Studio’s designs being reproduced by vestment-makers and others. It seems that visitors are looking over the Studio blog in order to obtain designs for other vestment-makers to prepare. Unfortunately, in these cases, permission to re-create the Studio’s designs was never sought.
On the one hand, there is a natural desire that good vestment design will flourish and the Saint Bede Studio is very pleased to be considered part of that endeavour. On the other hand, finding the Studio’s designs being reproduced by others and passed off as their own - and for commercial gain - seems to lack a basic respect and a sense of propriety.
Reproducing our work without permission is a violation of our artistic property.
If you are in doubt, please send us a message, there is always an opportunity for discussion. Read more about this matter here.
